To find the number of rows of beans planted in a garden that is 30 feet long with rows every 15 inches, let's start by converting the length of the garden from feet to inches.
1 foot = 12 inches, so:
\[ 30 \text{ feet} = 30 \times 12 = 360 \text{ inches} \]
Now, we divide the total length of the garden in inches by the distance between the rows:
\[ \text{Number of rows} = \frac{\text{Total length in inches}}{\text{Distance between rows}} = \frac{360 \text{ inches}}{15 \text{ inches}} = 24 \]
Therefore, there are **24 rows** of beans in the garden.
So, the correct response is **24 rows**.
1 foot = 12 inches, so:
\[ 30 \text{ feet} = 30 \times 12 = 360 \text{ inches} \]
Now, we divide the total length of the garden in inches by the distance between the rows:
\[ \text{Number of rows} = \frac{\text{Total length in inches}}{\text{Distance between rows}} = \frac{360 \text{ inches}}{15 \text{ inches}} = 24 \]
Therefore, there are **24 rows** of beans in the garden.
So, the correct response is **24 rows**.
